FROM THE SKULE™ ARCHIVES
Elsie MacGill (ElecE 2T7)
Convocation is around the corner! As we prepare to welcome a new cohort of alumni into the global Skule™ community, we are reminded of the original “Grads to Watch” who set milestones before us. Elsie MacGill (ElecE 2T7) was the first woman to graduate from U of T with an engineering degree — she is pictured here on the occasion of receiving an honorary degree from U of T in 1973.

Do you have a photo fit for the Skule™ Archives? We'd love to see them! Send all images and a brief description to sonia@ecf.utoronto.ca.
